Instructions
Step-by-Step Instructions
Prep Your Ingredients
- Start by getting everything ready—this helps the assembly go smoothly and keeps things fun rather than frantic.
- Cube the brownies or chocolate sponge
- Wash and dry your fresh berries
- Whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla until soft peaks form (fold in mascarpone or cream cheese if using)
Start Layering in a Trifle Bowl
- Use a clear glass bowl or individual dessert glasses to show off the beautiful layers.
- Bottom layer: Begin with a generous layer of chocolate brownies or cake cubes. Press them down lightly to create a sturdy base.
- Second layer: Spoon in a mix of berries. Feel free to scatter them casually—it adds charm!
- Third layer: Add a thick cloud of whipped cream. Use the back of a spoon to gently smooth it out.
- Optional drizzle: Add a touch of chocolate ganache for extra richness.
Repeat the Layers
- Build a second round of the same layers: cake, berries, cream. Depending on the depth of your bowl, you might get two or three beautiful rounds.
Finish with Flair
- Top with a final layer of whipped cream and decorate with a few whole berries, shaved chocolate, crushed pistachios, or a fresh mint sprig. This is where you make it Instagram-worthy!
Chill Before Serving
- Cover and refrigerate the trifle for at least 2 hours. This
